FILLING THE BURNER PAN
Fill the burner pan with vermiculite to the bottom of the rear
log and sloped to the front edge of the burner pan. Excess
vermiculite can spill forward or to the side of the burner
pan. Do not overfill the propane model. Do not cover the
pilot (if SPK or MVVK is installed) with vermiculite or rock
wool (embers).
PLACEMENT OF GLOWING EMBERS
(ROCk WOOL)
The Wildfire flame appearance can vary due to differences
in draft and fireplace configurations and ember placement.
After installing rear (#1) and front logs (#2 and #3), cover
the entire top surface of the vermiculite in the burner pan
with the rock wool supplied with unit. Tear the rock wool
into pieces approximately 1/2" in size (roughly the size of a
nickel) and cover the burner evenly. Do no use more rock
wool than the amount supplied with the unit. To enhance
the appearance of the Wildfire flame, it is recommended
to form a mound of rock wool in the center of the burner,
2" to 3" high, visible through the two front logs.
PLACEMENT OF DECORATIVE VOLCANIC
ROCk
Sprinkle volcanic rock in front of front glowing embers
and to both sides.
DO NOT SPRINkLE ON BURNERS, EMBER BED,
PILOT OR LOGS.
IMPoRTAnT: Do not handle logs with your bare
hands! Always wear gloves to prevent skin irritation
from ceramic fibers. After handling logs, wash your
hands gently with soap and water to remove any
traces of fibers.
